HM Borges Tinta Negra 2013 Medium Dry Madeira Wine

5/ 5

<p>Brilliant topaz in colour with golden highlights, Cossart Gordon Colheita Bual 2008 reveals enticing aromas of figs, prunes, vanilla, and fine oak. On the palate, it is medium-sweet, smooth, and full-bodied, with flavours of dried fruit and toffee lifted by fresh acidity. The finish is long and elegant, making it a perfect choice to enjoy with desserts, fruit cakes, or to savour on its own as a contemplative wine.</p>

<p></p> <p>The founders of D’Oliveiras were visionaries that saw the true value of Madeira Wine: its ability to improve over time. Therefore they started storing as much Madeira Wine as possible, letting it slowly mature inside the barrels for future generations to be able to enjoy it further. For that reason, D’Oliveiras is the only Madeira Wine company that owns Madeira Wine bottles and Barrels from as far as the 1850’s that can still be commercially purchased.</p>

<p>In the glass, Cossart Gordon Malvasia Colheita 2008 displays a coppery-gold colour with golden nuances and brilliant clarity. The aroma is intensely characteristic: tea and marmalade, candied fruit and dried fruits such as nuts and hazelnuts. On the palate, the wine is soft, sweet and enveloping, with fresh acidity that supports its long retronasal finish evoking fruit cake, honey and brandy. Best served after dessert or savoured slowly on its own, this Madeira rewards patience and pairs wonderfully with rich, sweet treats</p>

<p></p><p>Very few producers, and especially Madeira Wine, find in their history such a great revolution, as happened with Barbeito. Being a supplier of wines in bulk and from one moment to the other become a reference of the region of Madeira Wines, it is work. It all happened in 1991 when Ricardo Freitas joined the family business and decided, together with the Japanese Kinoshita with whom they joined, to make Barbeito one of the most important producers of Madeira Wine.</p>

The focus of the project is to showcase the potential of traditional Madeiran grape varieties in table wines outside of the traditional fortified Madeira Wine circuit. "</p> <p>Tinta Negra dos Villões - Estreito" comes from a small parcel of old vines over 60 years old in the Estreito de Câmara de Lobos, which displays the full potential of this variety on the South coast of the Madeira Island.</p>
